I certainly remember "Clarence" and enjoyed it. Unfortunately today it couldn't be shown without a howling protest from the "Woke" generation as it's comedy relied upon Clarence having myopic vision. The same applies to that great cartoon series Mr Magoo. Sad times now.

Thanks, I will pass it on. I used to listen to Mrs Dale's Diary at Nan's she called it Mother Dale's Dairy, she also mispronounced Panerarum, and Dis cother q, much to my being ridiculed at school.
I suppose it's where you draw the line. Everyone is hypersensitive at the moment. But....some of the Disney Cartoons could be quite offensive I think. And there was a cartoon pig with a bad stutter. We called our classmates with protuding teeth Goofy. One of my colleagues was called Olive Oil behind her back, and another called Olive, from On The Buses, she had pebble glasses. The school care taker was Mr Magoo. And we had a Smiffy and a Pansy Potter from the comic books. We had Plug at work, one of the bosses. But I loved Ronnie Barker. What would they do with Gregor Fisher's Baldy man and Hilda Baker's Marlene?i loved mr Magoo
I had the same happen to me, my first bar job, a lady came and asked for 20, Three Fives. Not knowing thy were cigarettes. I gave her 23 five pence pieces. I thought she wanted then for the bandit. The bar manager told me I was an eegit. I didn't know what that meant either.
The cartoon pig with the stutter was Porky Pig and from Warner Bros Looney Tunes cartoons not Disney. He's the one that does the "That's all folks at the end" .
i think if you "cant take it dont give it"
My partner growing up in France watched The Magic Roundabout. There, 'Florence' was called Margote. She says any girl with big feet was called Margote. And we had children at school we called Elephant Boy and Circus Boy.
as kids we all had and called others nicknames. my g/grandad used that word egit. a lot
I worked in a Irish run bar then (The Standard Triumph) and I was also called a gobshite too. And subsequently a half eegit. I am spelling it with 2 ee's Maurice as I and 3 friends entered a charity pub quiz, as The Egits, and the quizmistress read our name out as the Egg its. And everybody shouted Eeeeegits, so....as kids we all had and called others nicknames. my g/grandad used that word egit. a lot
